Subject: [ 45/48] USB: f81232: fix device initialisation at open

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

3.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@...il.com>

commit 21886725d58e92188159731c7c1aac803dd6b9dc upstream.

Do not use uninitialised termios data to determine when to configure the
device at open.

This also prevents stack data from leaking to userspace.
